침지노즐(SEN)의 재료로 사용되는 지르코니아/흑연 재질에서 용강 및 슬래그에 의한 침식의 형태를 살펴본 결과, 침식의 첫번째 기구는 부분안정화 지르코니아 내 안정화제인 CaO가 용강 및 슬래그에 의해 용해되면서 입방정 안정화 지르코니아가 단사정상으로 상전이하여 일어났는데, 상전이 시 부피팽창에 의한 균열이 발생하고 파괴가 진행되었고, 이로 인하여 미세 $ZrO_2$입자의 용해 및 탈락이 촉진되었다. 침식의 두 번째 기구는 슬래그가 큰 c-$ZrO_2$입자의 입계를 따라 침투하여 작은 입자들로 분리시키고, 작은 입자들이 용강과 슬래그에 탈락되어 진행되었다. 마지막 기구로는 입방정 지르코니아와 흑연이 반응하여 다공질의 미세한 ZrC 상을 형성하고, 이들이 slag에 용해되면서 침식이 진행되었다.

By using commercial zirconia powder CeO2-ZrO2 ceramics containing 8~16mol% CeO2 was made by heat treatment at 1350~155$0^{\circ}C$ for 1~10hr. The minimum amount of CeO2 for obtaining complete tetragonal phase was 12mol%, and in the tetragonal phase region fracture toughness of Ce-TZP was decreased with increasing CeO2 content and the maximum value was obtained when 12mol% CeO2 was added. The bending strength goes through maximum at 14mol% CeO2. Fracture mode of Ce-TZP transformed from intergranular to transgranular fracture with increasing CeO2 content, so the morphology of fracture surface of 16mol% Ce-TZP was wholly transgranular and this tendency was independent on grain size. The crystal structure of the 12mol% Ce-TZP was monoclinic with fringes along the grain boundaries which are lying in the particular plane from the TEM observation. The chemical composition of the sintered body was homogeneous as a whole and some amorphism or air pocket was observed at the triple junction.

완도납석과 carbon black 의 혼합물을 135$0^{\circ}C$에서 질소분위기를 사용하여 탄소환원질화법으로 $\beta$-Sialon 분물에 $\beta$-SiC를 제2상으로 넣어서 $Y_2O_3$와 $ZrO_2$를 각 소결조제로 사용하여 175$0^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 동안 상압소결하였다. 10wt %의 $Y_2O_3$를 소결조제로 사용하였을 때에 파괴인성은 3.8MN/m^{3/2}$, 3점꺽임 강도는 470MN/$m^2$ 그리고 경도는 13.7MN/$m^2$로서 좋은 값을 나타내었다. 이와 같은 파괴인성과 꺽임강도의 증가는 균열편향과 균열나눠짐에 의한 것으로 생각된다.

Zirconia powders with nano size pores and high specific surface areas were synthesized via aqueous precipitation and hydrothermal synthetic method using $ZrOCl_28H_2O$ and $NH_4OH$ under pH=11 and ambient condition. By this reaction. zirconia hydrate $(ZrO_x(OH)_{4-2x})$ was primarily synthesized and the obtained zirconia hydrate was heat treated hydrothermally using an autoclave at various temperatures under pH=11. X-ray diffraction, Scanning electron microscopy, Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, FT-IR, Raman, Particle size analysis, DTA-TG, and BET techniques were used for the characterization of the powder. The synthesized zirconia showed an amorphous phase, however, the phase was transformed to the crystalline state during the hydrothermal process. The observed crystalline phase above $160^{\circ}C$ was a mixed phase of monoclinic and tetragonal zirconia. By the BET analysis, it was found that the specific surface area was ranged in $126{\sim}276m^2/g$ and the zirconia had the cylindrical shaped pores with average diameter of $2{\sim}7nm$.

정방정 지르코니아의 상안정성 및 저온열화기구를 고찰하기 위해 Y2O3 안정화 지르코니아에 3가 양이온 산화물을 첨가한 후 그 소결체의 기계적 물성, 라만 스펙트럼 및 격자상수 변화 등을 관찰하였다. 2Y-TZP에 $Zr^{4+}$ 보다 이온크기가 큰 3가 양이온($Sc^{3+},\;Yb^{3+},\;Y^{3+},\;Sm^{3+},\;Nd^{3+},\;La^{3+}$)들을 2 mol%까지 첨가하여 $1500{\circ}C$에서 1시간 소결후, X-ray 상분석 결과 $La^{3+}$의 경우에는 0.5 mol% 이상 첨가시 pyrochlore 상$(La_2Zr_2O_7)$의 형성으로 정방정상의 상안정성이 저하되었다. 첨가량이 증가할수록 $Zr6{4+}$과 이온크기가 거의 비슷한 $Sc^{3+}$를 첨가한 경우에는 정방정상만 관찰되었으나 $Yb^{3+},\;Y^{3+},\;Sm^{3+},\;Nd^{3+}$를 첨가한 경우에는 입방정상이 형성되었다. 양이온 크기가 커질수록 c/a비는 증가하였으나 $220{\circ}C$에서 500시간까지 열처리후 상분석 결과 단사정량은 감소하였다.

This study investigated the effects of grain size and phase constitution on the mechanical properties of $3Y-ZrO_2$ by varying the sintering conditions. The raw powder prepared by a low-cost wet milling using the coarse solid oxide powders was sintered by both pressureless sintering and hot-pressing, respectively. As increasing holding time at $1450^{\circ}C$ for pressureless sintering, it promoted the microstructural coarsening of matrix grains and the phase transformation to tetragonal phase, whereas the bimodal microstructure embedded with abnormal $cubic-ZrO_2$ grains was observed regardless of sintering time. On the other hand, the specimens hot-pressed at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 2 h reached ~ 97% of relative density with homogeneous fine microstructure and mixed phase constitution. It was found that the proportion of untransformed monoclinic zirconia had the most adverse effect on the biaxial strength compared to the impacts of grain size and density. The pressureless sintering of the low-cost powder for prolonged sintering time to 8 h led to a decent combination of mechanical properties ($H_V=13.2GPa$, $K_{IC}=8.16MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, ${\sigma}=981MPa$).

The hot corrosion behavior of plasma sprayed 4 mol% $Y_2O_3-ZrO_2$ (YSZ) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) with volcanic ash is investigated. Volcanic ash that deposited on the TBCs in gas-turbine engines can attack the surface of TBCs itself as a form of corrosive melt. YSZ coating specimens with a thickness of 430-440 ${\mu}m$ are prepared using a plasma spray method. These specimens are subjected to hot corrosion environment at $1200^{\circ}C$ with five different duration time, from 10 mins to 100 h in the presence of corrosive melt from volcanic ash. The microstructure, composition, and phase analysis are performed using Field emission scanning electron microscopy, including Energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. After the heat treatment, hematite ($Fe_2O_3-TiO_2$) and monoclinic YSZ phases are found in TBCs. Furthermore the interface area between the molten volcanic ash layers and YSZ coatings becomes porous with increases in the heat treatment time as the YSZ coatings dissolved into molten volcanic ash. The maximum thickness of this a porous reaction zone is 25 ${\mu}m$ after 100 h of heat treatment.

TZP/SUS- and ZT/SUS-functionally gradient materials (FGM) were fabricated by pressureless sintering in Ar-atmosphere. The sintering defects such as warping, frustrum formation, splitting and cracking which originated from shrinkage and sintering behaviors of metal and ceramics different from each other could be controlled by the adjustment with respect to the particle size and phase type of zirconia. The residual stresses generated on the metal and ceramic regions in FGM were characterized with X-ray diffraction method, and relaxed as the thickness and number of compositional gradient layer were increased. The residual stress states in TZP/SUS-FGM have irregular patterns by means of the different sintering behavior and cracking at ceramic-monolith. While in ZT/SUS-FGM, compressive stress is induced on ceramic-monolith by the volume expansion of monoclinic ZrO2 at phase transformation. Also, compressive stress is induced on metal-monolith by the constraint of warping which may be created to the metal direction by the difference of coefficient of thermal expansions. As a consequence, it has been verified that the residual stress generated on FGM is dominantly influenced by the thickness and number of compositional gradient layer, and the sintering defects and residual stress can be controlled by the constraint of the difference of shrinkage and sintering behaviors of each component.

The basic zirconium sulfate was prepared from ZrOCl2.8H2O and H2SO4 in the 9$0^{\circ}C$ aqueous solution. The pH and amount of unreacted zirconium in the solution that reacton had completed was 0.2 and 10%. As the pH was increased to 1.4 by NH4OH theresulting precipitates were the mixtures of the basic zirconium sulfate and the zirconium hydroxide although the precipitates were recovered completely. The thermal decomposition behavior of this sample has been examined by thermal analysis(TG-DTA), X-ray diffraction study, infrared spectroscopy and sulfur analysis. As a result, it was found that the precipitates have perfectly been decomposed at 85$0^{\circ}C$ accompanying to the release of a molecule of water below 25$0^{\circ}C$ and 85% sulfate at about $600^{\circ}C$. The thermally decomlposed products were initially amorphous phase, which were become metastable tetragonal phase with increment of temperature and finally transformed to the stable monoclinic phase at 100$0^{\circ}C$.

Zirconia ($ZrO_2$) is a crystalline dioxide of zirconium. Dental zirconia blocks for CAD/CAM are usually fabricated with powders of tetragonal zirconia polycrystals (TZP) stabilized with 3mol% yttria. Because of its mechanical properties similar to those of metals and color similar to tooth, it is evaluated to attain the two purposes at a time, strength and aesthetic in prosthetic dentistry. The ability of transformation of Y-TZP from tetragonal to monoclinic helps to prevent crack propagation and contributes the increase of strength and fracture toughness. Two different types of blocks, soft and hard, are used to prepare the zirconia frameworks. The fuzzy-sintered block is difficult in machining, so pre-sintered soft 3Y-TZP block is usually used to mill by computer aided machining.
